ayup. blueberry, with lotsa butter and maple syrup.
Avatar 6:27pm Holly in NC:

Not a sweets person, but helped kids I babysit make beignets Saturday morning. Did eat a few - quality control important!

Tonight = oysters - kids' parents kindly left a fresh pint jar in the fridge, and since I honestly can't leave their house (ice, trapped), it's fair game. I know, most people get stuck with bread & milk, right? ;-)

Can you plan Handa Wanda?
Avatar 6:35pm Holly in NC:

@Glenn - I'm eating that *exact* recipe, except sherry vinegar and no maple syrup. But red wine vinegar & maple syrup are in the house, might need to experiment...wee batch for 1 oyster only.
  6:36pm jj NY-CA:

That's *play* not plan.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:36pm Doug Schulkind:

@jj NY-CA
Excellent request! Don't have it nearby. I will hum it in my head though.
Avatar 6:37pm Carmichael:

Hows about the Mardi Gras Mambo? There are only about 300 versions of that song ...
  6:37pm jj NY-CA:

It's been playing in my head for about half an hour at least.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:38pm Doug Schulkind:

@Carmichael
That one I've got coming. And I BUMPED the original by the Hawkettes for another killer version.
